screen pixelating constantly for months while watching Comcast programs

For many months now I have encountered this issue no matter which HD channels I am watching. Why does this continue to happen? This occurs at least 10 times an hour and lasts about 2-3 seconds. When this does occur I will miss the audio/video for that duration as well. To say this is disruptive to my viewing experience is an understatement. I have previous refreshed my cable box and followed the system refresh instructions. Those tasks did nothing to correct the problem.
Today I am watching programming on the DVR and live TV, and the pixelating continues non stop. I cannot watch anything on Comcast without this happening.

 Can someone please have this checked out?

Hello, @machado22 thank you for reaching out over Xfinity Forums. I completely understand how the pixelation/sound issues is problematic when trying to view your DVR recordings and live programming. I appreciate the update of already trying some troubleshooting, so sounds like you know how use the Xfinity App to run that: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/tv-troubleshoot-xfinity-app

I'd like to investigate further, when you have time. Could you please send our team a direct message with your full name and full address?

I am a long time customer,  who is very dissatisfied with the comcast experience.  I live on Edgewood Avenue in SF,   TV is pixellated to a point we cannot watch. Technician came out, measured the signal, said it was ok and geve us a new box which was worse than ever, slow to change channels and all still pixellated.  He stated this was poor signal in street .. so why did we pay for nothing.  Furthermore, every time I call I cannot get a human being ,  just a recording who makes me re start the dame box every time .. which never works
